ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Senator Shibli Faraz on Monday said India had started a campaign to malign Pakistan, based on false and baseless allegations, while dragging respectable staff of the Pakistan High Commission in New Delhi.
In a statement, he said the RSS-BJP government in India was targeting minorities especially Muslims in racist and violent acts.
The minister said under the international law, preventing the Pakistan High Commission from discharging its diplomatic duties and the arrest and torturing diplomatic staff was a heinous and highly reprehensible act.
The aim of vicious campaign, he said, was to cover up its crimes, to avoid global stigma against its treatment of minorities and divert attention from state-terrorism against unarmed Kashmiris in Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir.
The international community should take note of Indian actions and hold New Delhi accountable for its violations of diplomatic and international laws.
India is guilty of aggression against all its neighbours in the region, said Shibli Faraz.
Indian mischief and expansionist mindset had forced even a peace-loving and progressive country such as China to deploy its army on the Indian border.
He said similar news were reported in the media regarding Nepal.
Shibli said unilateral and illegal Indian action in Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir, an internationally-recognized unresolved dispute was a clear violation of the United Nations Security Council resolutions and international laws, and a charge sheet against New Delhi.
Foreign Office spokesperson Aisha Farooqui had already rejected Indian act.
"We condemn the detention and torture as well as threatening and pressuring of the diplomatic officials to accept false charges," she had said in her response.
